“I want to show you and tell you that I will continue to
move forward in my administration and support the
Bronx Council on the Arts and other cultural institutions
which are imperative as we move forward in the future of our borough.”

Benefit Hosts Molly Rokasy and Ray Raimundi were the perfect guides through the evening.

Joseph Kelleher, President and Chief Operating Officer, Hutchinson Metro Center lent words of support for BCA as we look forward to our 50th Anniversary celebration in 2012.

Councilman James Vacca highlighted BCA’s strong relationship-building with the Westchester Square business community as site for our future headquarters.

Members of Bronx and city-wide arts community presented our awardees and highlighted their powerful contributions to the arts.

One famous Bronx TV personality enjoyed the food!

Guests bid furiously on works of art supplied by emerging and seasoned Bronx artists, including Gail Nathan, Bronx River Art Center, one of the evening’s award honorees.
